CORRECTION:
The police investigated a sex offense in 2006, at the Fleischman residence, and Fleischman was formally charged in Nov of 2007.
That initial case was dismissed, and a new case, will be resolved on Sept 16, 2008.
Sorry for the confusion on the date of charges/arrest.

I received an email signed by a "Doggie70", which was using the same email address, as the one posted from the former party chair, on websites. I cannot accept emails, from persons I do not know, especially those who claim to represent a third party.
I cannot take an threat of libel and slander, from a third person, in an email, as a valid communication.

So I decided it is be best to address this persons concerns, regarding date inaccuracies, before the case is concluded. Many people may have copied a posting from me, which I have no control over.

But until the case is actually closed, any of the postings I have made are speculative opinion, and never publically published in any traditional media.

As a voter living in Wisconsin's 8th Congressional District, Gard's had little, to no, public exposure, since he announced.
Gard has made moronic claims about incumbent Rep. Steve Kagen's (D-Wi8) voting record.
Gard claims some votes, like this ad does were against some action....by the truth is the votes he listed, were 100% procedural motion votes....not one was on an actual bill passed.

Gard, in 2006 whined over Kagen's ability to use his own money, yet Gard was allowed to get bigger donations under the Millionaires Amendment. SCOTUS shot that down this week, and now Gard has to return tens of thousands, he's raised this year using that rule. Donors are not impressed with Gard, and many of his supporters from 2006, have given Kagen & Obama.

Here's the really disgusting part(s) of Gard's operation.
His campaing manager is Mark Graul, who masterminded the campaign, of the former Rep. Mark Green when he ran for Gov in 2006. Graul & Green decided to illegally transfer fed campaign money to a state race...a big no-no, with Wisconsin law. Green lost and was forced to return $473,000 and Graul was shown to have accept sports event tickets, and ask for more, from Jack Abramoffm while Green's Chief of Staff in DC.
After Green lost, Bush made his Ambassador to Tanzania.
Graul went on to run the worst State Supreme Court race in Wisconsin's history.

Graul ran the campaign of Wi Supreme Court Justice Annette Ziegler, who denied unethical rulings in 42 cases, where her husbands bank benefited....no recusal, no notice of conflict to the plaintiffs...
Then she admittted all the unethical conduct, ONLY after she won with a partisan 527 PAC spending twice what both candidates for the court seat raised! She got a wrist slap from her peers, on the high court.
Graul continues to claim she did nothing wrong...so Gard hires this guy to run his campaign...or was told to hire him.
Some think the latter is the case.
Voters know what's going on, with Gard...which may be why he is not seen on local media, or in public....

The Wisc GOP from Brown County, the largest in the 8th, also has serious problems. It's former chairman, a Don Fleischman, was arrested in Nov 2006, for felony sex crimes against boys, including offering them beer and pot. It gets worse.
Fleischman, who was arrested, remained the county chair and spokesman until, this blogger broker the story of his arrest, in Nov 2007...a full year after his arrest.
Once the media got the story, Fleischman and the entire GOP staff resigned...and the state decertified, the oldest and original Republican party local chapters in the nation. They protected this guy, after his arrest, and did nothing until it was too late to save him, or the local chapter.
Typical Republican values on full parade in Green Bay.

It gets even worse, in this sex crime case...
The young man, who was Fleischman's targeted victim, was found hiding in a closet in his underwear, by police. He lived across the street from Felschman, in a troubled teen home.
The kid and his family moved, and Fleischman got his case tossed when the kid did not show up for court...well, the kid was in school...so Fleischman got the court to issue an arrest warrant....only to expose his name to the public, which was held private, as he was a minor at the time of the crime, but is now an adult. So the kid gets arrested, taken out of school, and hauled up to GB.
The District Attorney was not pleased, and re-filed all the charges against this GOP jerk.
He goes to trial, in GReen Bay, in early Sept....just in time for the election. Lots of pics of Gard and this guy are out there, as is video of Gard and Flesichman, from 2000, 2002, 2004 and 2006.
I suppose the 'quilt by association' is not too fair, but when the sex offender is one of the main fundraisiers, I guess that association is the real quilt.
Gard has not made any statement on Fleischmans arrest, the charges, the protection of kids, and the year long cover up of the crime.
Congress just passed the Protection of Teens in Residential Facilities Act this week, to increase penalties for those who prey on the kids, in the same kind of facility Fleischman moved near.

No word from Gard.

Here's the rub....Fleischman resigned in Nov 2007, yet the state's election board shows his name on the finance reports dated jan 31, 2008. The Wisconsin Elections Board ( Now called the Wisc Accountability Baord) is investigating this report and Fleischman's authority to sign the document.

Gard is not just a myth promoter, he is also a very disliked former Assembly member, who played obstructionist in the state capitol. The Wisconsin Legistlature was glad to see him go.

Gard has not found a job, since his loss in 2006. His income report shows his income, is that of his wife.
Gard's choice of Graul, and his support by the very partisan, Wisconsin Manufacturers & Commerce PAC, his failure to get a real job, his silence on a sex offender running the local party, are critical issues, that voters are away of.

This is not just Gard, failing to use Google, it is a failure of that regions GOP to hold itself accountable, respectable and capable of following the values of Wisconsin.

One Joe McCarthy, making moronic claims, was enough for Wisconsin...
By the way...Wisconsin has no oil.

We could always go back to SCOTUS with something like this....

"A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the rights contained within the 2nd Amendment shall not infringe upon the states right to regulate firearms, to assure that defense."

A couple of well-placed commas should do it....

Oh ye of little faith.
There are some who doubt the Dems will win in Nov.

I don't. and will continue to make jokes about idiotic Republican plans.

I am in WIsconsin. We had the ultimate GOP idiot.
McCarthy himself.

The concept is hilarious.

Think about how easy it would be to take over the GOP and replace all it's appointed and annointed with liberals.
Nothing could be done about it.

The Dems, while losing vote totals, would still be elected....they would just be elected as different parties, which would make no difference at all. It doesn't mean they have to follow party ideology.
Every elected official gets to vote the way they want.

But the chaos plan could really backfire.
I found it an amusing thing to post.
It's not dirty.

Why is this a problem?

One option is get a better mouse. I have a Logitech Marble Mouse that has scrolling buttons, which I get set to incremental, or even half and full page jumps. I can get right to a spot.

I like scrolling, and often find things I might have missed along the way.
Stop and smell the blogging!
